It would have to be with POV-Ray in one of the 1.x incarnations. I tinkerered around with that for a while, never really creating anything of note. I was doing a lot of work in Corel Draw for the units I was assigned to (Challenge coins, unit logos, party flyers and the like), and when Corel Dream came out with one of the versions, I tinkered with that too. In early 1997 I bought a copy of Bryce 2 and since then I have gone to Bryce 3d and 4, and I'm looking forward to getting a copy of Bryce 5. A lot of my earlier furniture models were done with Bryce, but they were getting almost too big to be useful. I guess it was late last summer I got a used copy of Carrara, and have been busy learning how to use it since then. Besides Bryce and Carrara, I use Poser, Nendo, DoGA, and sPatch. I use Corel Draw and PhotoPaint for most of my texture maps. Occasionally I'll do an image with Bryce still, but mostly working on various model projects in Carrara takes up my free time. I used to do a lot of woodworking, but I don't have the space here (nor the time) to do it, maybe after I retire from the Air Force.
